The progress on the defensive end is obvious to all! The Clippers backcourt star is growing into an all-round talent?

In a previous NBA Las Vegas summer league game, the Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 67-58. After this game, the Clippers have won three consecutive victories in the summer league, with a current record of 3 wins and 0 losses, while the Lakers currently have a record of 1 wins and 2 losses in the summer league.

In this game, the Clippers' substitute backcourt star Trentyn Flowers actually performed quite well. Flowers played 23 minutes and 12 seconds in the game, made 0 of 4 shots, 0 of 3 three-pointers from outside the three-point line, and did not score 1 point in the game, but also contributed 5 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals. He also made 2 mistakes, and the plus and negative values reached the highest +22 in the game. Flowers did not find his shooting feeling in this game, and he didn't even score 1 point, but his performance in other aspects was remarkable. Flowers also has certain passing ability and dominance ability on the offensive end. He can also control his shots when he feels badly and try to support the team in other ways. In addition, Flowers' performance on the defensive end is even more remarkable. He can also give full play to his defensive end and exert a huge influence on the game. The plus or negative value of +22 can even show how outstanding his contribution is on the defensive end.

Summer League so far, Flowers averaged 23.8 minutes in the first three times, with averaging 9.3 points, 5 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 2 steals per game, and 3.3 turnovers and 2.7 fouls, shooting percentage of 47.6%, three-point shooting percentage of 20%, and free throw shooting percentage of 66.7%. Flowers' performance in the summer league was quite good. Although his performance on the offensive end was not very stable and he could not maintain stable offensive efficiency in every game, he actually had certain breakthrough ability and scoring ability, and he could also take on passing and organizing tasks at some point. The most important thing is that Flowers' performance on the defensive end is far beyond expectations, and he is also a very excellent defender.

Flowers is still holding the two-way contract sent by the Clippers, but whether he can hold the two-way contract in his hand is actually an unknown. However, judging from the situation in the summer league, Flowers has indeed made considerable progress. Last season, his performance on the defensive end in the NBA Development League was not particularly outstanding. He played some roles on the offensive end. Now that Flowers' scoring ability has improved significantly, his role on the court has become more obvious. With Flowers' talent and potential, coupled with his defensive contribution, he should be able to continue to appear in the Clippers' lineup in the new season.
